    Think pink!

    April 30, 2008 - By 


    So I’ve been working on the back sides of my red, yellow and pink squares today. I was wanting to put some ribbon on and after looping it over it hit me!

    Little pink ribbons for breast cancer awareness.

    My mom is a 40 year survivor…she had a radical mastectomy in 1968. I’m thankful that she did her own self exam and discovered the lump. If she hadn’t, she wouldn’t have lived long enough to meet and marry my dad much less give birth to me.

    Remember to do your self exams and follow your doctors orders for get mammograms on schedule. I’ve been getting mammograms every other year since I was 26. It’s quick, easy and totally worth the brief discomfort.

    I will now step down off my soap box.

    Red 4×4’s finished

    Boy these red ones took longer than I had expected. Not sure why red was difficult but it certainly was! I just have green, black and white. Theresa said we can combine the black and white. I’m going to give doing them separately a try first.

    Pink and Yellow

    April 26, 2008 - By 

    I’ve been jammin’ on these squares. I’m pretty determined to get them all completed before the first mailing date. This will serve several purposes including saving postage, freeing me up for other projects and most of all, not forgetting until the last minute. I’m usually not that forgetful but my mind has been REALLY scattered lately. Forgot my purse one day and my workout shoes the next. Must be that birthday sneaking up on me.
